Video Transcript: Bryan Pagliano - who set up the private email server for Mrs. Clinton - was just granted immunity by a federal judge and is set to testify before a grand jury. JUDGE NAPOLITANO: How he was able to migrate a State Department secure system onto her private server. Question: Mr. Pagliano, did Mrs. Clinton give you her personal Secretary of State password to enable you to do that? If the answer is yes, we have an indictment for misconduct in office as well as espionage. So what does this mean for Hillary Clinton? NAPOLITANO: She should be terrified of the fact that he’s been granted immunity. Only a federal judge can grant immunity. A federal judge will only grant immunity if a sitting jury is ready to hear testimony from the immunized person. So we know a couple things: We know the recommendation we were waiting for from the FBI to the Justice Department has already made its way from the FBI to the Justice Department. We know FBI agents and Justice Department prosecutors are working in tandem. We know that they went through this lengthy process of interviewing Mr. Pagliano and finding out what he knows and deciding it’s so valuable, they need him to say it to a grand jury. And the only way he can say it to a grand jury is if they promise not to prosecute him and hence he gets immunity. And we also know they’re going to seek someone’s indictment because they would not be immunizing him and thereby inducing him to spill his guts unless they wanted to indict someone. The Clinton camp is reportedly pleased Pagliano is cooperating. CLINTON PRESS SEC. BRIAN FALLON: She’s encouraged everyone to cooperate because we want to make every good-faith effort to be transparent and answer any questions people have. With Mr. Pagliano, we encouraged him as well because we don’t think he has any reason to not be transparent. NAPOLITANO: They are out of their minds. That is a response written by their political people and not by their legal people. Mr. Pagliano is their nightmare. Will Pagliano's testimony be enough to sink Hillary Clinton? If you are voting Democrat, are you concerned she may face criminal prosecution? Share and comment below.
